It's amazing, I've heard them before of course, but never lived with one. If you say anything at all to him you're rewarded with a lovely 'raaaaooww' in response.Originally Posted by Anakat
I did warn you
I am going through all this right now with my new kitten Hope! Good luck and pm me if you need any advice. His meowing is going to be very different from Radar
It's so exciting having a new kitten around isn't it? It is funny though, Sonic looks so fragile compared to Radar at that age, he's a bit smaller than Radar was and I think is going to be a smaller cat than him when they are both full grown (Radar's not heavy but is very tall and lanky), but I think mostly it's due to those incredibly slender little legs, he looks so delicate and breakableOriginally Posted by Sims2fan

I have Mica and Hope out together (supervised) and it has worked out well. At night Hopey goes into spare room until we feel that both Mica and Hope are ok with other. They are getting there! Its def easier introducing a kitten than fully grown cat (by my exprience anyway) but both can be done (not trying to talk anyone out of adopting an adult kitty--they are so wonderful).
Good luck!

You know, I think Oriental kittens are so funny looking. When they grow up, they look much more "normal". To me, it amazing the changes they go through physically to go from that funny looking kitten to that normal looking adult.
Can't wait for Sonic pics!! Glad to hear Radar is receptive to the smell of his new "pupil".
No, don't get me wrong, they're gorgeous cats. I've never seen one in person, so all I see is pics. Heck, I'm used to your basic "domestic" kitty. I just can't get over exactly how big their ears are as babies!! I always assumed that their bodies were proportional as kittens & then their ears grew(why I assumed that I dunno)....I never really looked much into Orientals until Epona & Nate told us they were getting one.....Originally Posted by Anakat

Yes you really know your own cats, as it varies from one situation to another. Hopey is also so fragile looking and the first day we got her she spent the whole day sleeping or crying in the study where we had her (why I let her out in the end). I was worried she was ill until she started playing and erxploring with everything this morning, that's when I figured she was fine.Originally Posted by Epona

I want Sonic to explore the hallway and kitchen so he is familiar with a wider area before letting them meet face to face - he's curled up sleeping again at the moment
I once got into huge trouble on a parrot site when I described some hatchlings as cute little aliens. I meant it as a compliment, but the breeder got so upset with me, I didn't know where to put myself.
Tolly is very beautiful indeed. Sonic is also beautiful. Mind you he is by no means a perfect oriental, he was the one out of the litter that seemed to come out worst in terms of type lol. But don't tell him that (according to his breeder what he lacks in looks, he makes up for in personality, and to us that's what makes him perfectOriginally Posted by Anakat

He's slept a fair bit today, I'm putting it down to suddenly being away from his mum and siblings and finding himself in strange surroundings. He is pooing, peeing, and eating fine. I fell asleep on the sofa earlier (we're all knackered today!) with Radar and when I woke up Nate wasn't in the room - so I checked the bedroom and he was asleep with little Sonic curled up on his arm and nestling into his beardOriginally Posted by Sims2fan
